A Peanut-vender's Chat.

1hcre is a vast difference in peanuts.
Some large nuts look very fine, but are
really tasteless. No matter how well
roasted and prepared they may be they
still lack the features Of a good nut.
"A good rooster, like good cook, must
be born with certain qualifications
that can not be reached by trying to
educate him to it. Some dealers roast
the nut too little and others too much.
Roast them too much and the oil is
taken from them, and if the oil is not
properly brought out the nut has a dis
agreeable taste. Some people like pea
nuts hot, but then they are very bad
for the teeth. Dyspeptics should eat
very few. l find from n.y own expert
ence that it would be better if they did
not eat any. The average Peanut-eat-
err eats one every minute which is en-
tirely too fast.-St. Louis Gl0be-D Demo-

Beautiful Lunar Phenomenon.

A Greifswald correspondent reports
beautiful lunar phenomenon seen
there some evenings ago. The cres-
cent clearly defined was in the south
western heavens, when, suddenly, at
its right side, an enlarged reflection Of
the crescent appeared, just as sharply
defined and shining as clearly as the
original crescent, which it gradually
seemed to embrace. After some min
utes. there appeared on the left side a
further reflection Of this original
image. but less bright and distinct.
Both images remained visible for a
considerable time. and then faded
gradually away with the deepening
darkness. leaving the crescent moon
shining brightly As before.-C0logne

Utilizing Sea Weed.

An English chemist has found a way
for turning to account the practically
iilimitabie quantity of sea weed that
the ocean supplies, or at least as much
Of it as may be desired. He boils the
weed with Carbonate of soda, and
treats the filtered solution with sui
phuric acid. obtaining from it in this
manner substance that has more Wis
costly than starch or even gum arabic,
and that can be profitably employed in
stiffening various textile fabrics. It is
also said to be excellently adapted for
the making of siEups and for certain
culinary uses. From the cellular and
fibrous matter left after the extraction
of that material-to which he has given
the name of '.alguina''-a very good
quality Of writing paper can be cheaply
made.-Scicnce.
